ABOUT THE AUTHOR William D. Whitney

The author has treated the language throughout as an accented one, omitting nothing of what is known respecting the nature of the Sanskrit accent, its changes in combination and inflection and the tone of the individual words. Thus the grammar is consistent with the teachings of linguistic science. He has also discarded a few of the long-used and familiar divisions and terms of Sanskrit grammar. But the care has been taken to facilitate the transition from the old to the new, and the changes, it is hoped, will commend themselves to unqualified acceptance. For the practical requirement of the learner of the language the author has attempted to use different sizes of type to make the work as usable by one where object is to acquire a knowledge of the classical Sanskrit. A historical treatment of the facts of language has been made within the limits of the language itself.
